Misdiagnosed my breast cancer, was more interested in saving my breast than removing the cancer.

Outstanding doctor - compassionate, caring as well as excellent doctor. Unlike most doctors, you are not just another number. His staff are so courteous, especially his nurse, Becky. Thank you to all.

This doctor instantly made me feel I was going to be ok even after telling me I had breast cancer that was so large I might need a mastectomy. I knew I was going to be ok & it kept me on a positive attitude. You don't get this with many doctors. Luckily, he was involved with a clinical trial that reduced my tumor enough to save my breast. I feel he was a gift from God and he remembers details about you even 5 years after initial contact-Excellent skill level and the incision was done in such a way as to minimize deformity of the remaining breast tissue. Consider him before anyone else.

Dr Guenther is the best surgeon ever. Back in 2007 he did a cancer surgery on me taking out the tail of my pancreas, and spleen. He did thyroid surgery, hernia surgery, liver surgery, and I had MRSA and he pulled me through it. He is a very kind giving, caring, understanding, I can't say enough about him. He has brought me through hard complicating situations. He is my Angel . The BEST
